--- Comment #18 from Lukas Ocilka
Then I guess I would setup a popup to activate an hour after boot, and ask if it's a convenient time to perform disk maintenance. "It has been <X amount of time> since the disk maintenance script ran: Would you like to run it now?" With options to remind me in 1 hour, day, or week.
There's no good place/time/way to display such a pop-up. Remember: Systems are to serve, not to bother. For that reason, systems can run without any user interaction (headless) or with several different display managers or even without GUI, just with text-mode. FS maintenance (if really needed) should be called when the system is actually idle. If it's idle, it often means there's nobody reading any pop-ups and nobody can answer such question. And BTW cron is ideally replaced with systemd-timer(s) https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/systemd.timer.html -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
